Alright folks, that time of the year has come again… I am talking about Black Friday.
This year (2009), Black Friday will fall on November 27.
As you know, I am extremely frugal (cheap) and therefore I know my deals and will show you how to take advantage of this great day of deals.
I will be keeping the Deals – Black Friday 2009 page (the tab on top of the site) as updated as possible, just check it out daily.
…. and yes, its Wiki friendly, so you can contribute to the list if you want.

)
Want to know how to get any of the sales items from Black Friday without having to get in line with the masses?

Are you a hardcore gamer? Can you prove it when there is nothing to win… only to lose?
Some one has created a Mac OS X game with the high stakes and winning means you could lose it all.
The game is called “Lose/Lose” and that is actually what happens when you kill enemies in the game.

Or if you just want to try out the game at its pre-release stage of development, you can come as well… but seriously, report any bugs or issues to help out the developers.

Supplemental to:
• Clevo D900F (Sager NP9280) Ultra-Detailed Review
• Clevo D900F 4th fan modification
I posted this a while back at the NotebookReview forums…
… but I decided to post it here and show you what I used to overclock the Core i7 in a supposed un-overclockable notebook (BIOS and software).
This notebook, as well as many other high-end Clevo models do not give overclocking ability in the BIOS.
… kind of annoying to own such a high-end system and not having the options to push it further.
I literally wasted two days trying to find a solution for getting a viable overclocking option.
I thought maybe edit the BIOS… but I did not have the latest Phoenix BIOS editor, as well as my programming skills are quite under par.
Then I decided to find a software solution… it was a painful journey as well… for the most part.
I will show you how the “World’s Fastest Notebook” just got faster…. eat your hearts out desktop owners.
